If you have more than one internet browser installed, try setting
the other one to default (i.e. if you think FireFox is your default
set Internet Explorer as default). Then see if hyperlinks start
working.

Your MS Update most likely hijacked the registry entries needed to
permit links to be passed by windows to any other application.
